To: no gnu taxes (#0) If you really want to stick to card catalogs, then be sure to bring your inkwell and goosequill pen to take notes, too. I remember the Good Ol' Days when getting the answer to a question sometimes took a couple miles driving/walking and 1-3 hours of time. I don't remember it fondly, however.

To: no gnu taxes (#0) (Edited) I go to the local library periodically. Most times to read the local paper, some times to use their computers to surf the 'net and once in awhile I check out an audio book in the event that I'm going on a long road trip. I mostly go to get out of the the house and kill some time. Edit: I have checked out a book or three over the years too. Also, I use their references such as Consumer Reports when I'm considering a major purpose. I've since learned with a card/ID and password I can access their subscribed references from home for free.

To: Hank Rearden (#4) I guess my only point is that you don't have to think about what you are looking up anymore. If you think that is a good thing, so be it. no gnu taxes  posted on  2018-02-08   17:49:33 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #11.

To: no gnu taxes (#0) The last time I went into a library all they had was a bank of computers with Internet access that had a limited amount of time for use. There were almost no books there except for a few reference books. Was that a school library,or a public library? I go to my local library several times a year to buy used books really cheap. Everytime I have been there they have plenty of books,and can get you anything they have in their system if you will wait a few days for it. Yes,they also have wi-fi and a even computers you can use for research if you want. I take a laptop there when my wi-fi or electricity is out. And yes,I do have a library card. No card=no wi-fi. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments. sneakypete  posted on  2018-02-08   19:47:24 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #13. To: Vicomte13 (#3) Our library is filled with books, but there's no card catalog. You find the books with a computer. Same here,but it is usually (always?) the librarian that looks it up for you. Even if you were able to look it up yourself she would still have to look it up to order it for you if it isn't in stock.

I remember that too. And I think that of all of the innovations since I was a kid, the one that I appreciate most of all is being able to turn on a computer, go out to the web, and have actual answers to all of my myriad questions right at my fingertips. Knowledge, answers - that was really hard to come by back then. I remember as a kid I was fascinated by the planets, and specifically by their satellites, that they actually had moons like ours. I remember wanting to know the names of all of the moons circling around all of the planets, and I remember that it took me a couple of years, getting a little piece from this source and that source, to piece it together. There was no repository of information to which one could go. If it wasn't in the encyclopedia, it was really hard finding out much. Today, satisfying answers can be had very quickly.

To: no gnu taxes (#0) I use the local library but mainly for getting tax forms. I used the card catalog a few times as well. goldilucky  posted on  2018-02-10   13:47:36 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #17. To: goldilucky (#15) My planet was Jupiter. I recall a map I drew for the huge continent beneath the red spot on Jupiter, surrounded by the "Boiling Bubbling Sea of Yamakatcha". Being a kid in the '60s, how could space NOT be fascinating? It still is, but that Elon Musk's Tesla is out there in space somewhere seems a bit tawdry and weird, like the ultimate conceit. Couldn't he have put some sort of legitimate experiment on the thing?

To: goldilucky (#18) God holds the keys to the mysteries of our universe. God is the source of our universe. He gives flashes of insights of how he went about doing things sometimes to men, like Newton and Einstein. I don't know if Tesla was real or a fraud.
